Beef and Bean Enchiladas

"This recipe is from a friend of mine who made a family cookbook of their favorite recipes. We have really enjoyed the cookbook and I will be posting more of her recipes. For the enchiladas, I have made them with the original recipe (listed below) and then last night I didn't have all the right ingredients, so I used a can of RoTel that had the lime and cilantro in place of the can of green chilies. I also used recipe #66591 instead of a packet from the store (I didn't have any on hand). I also always use the flour tortillas that you can buy at Costco that you cook yourself. These enchiladas have a bit of spice to them. They might be too spicy for some and not enough for others, they are perfect for us!!"

  1. I browned the ground beef with onion. I then added 1 can of beef broth, taco seasoning & chilies and let it cook down. <br/>Then I added the enchilada sauce and beans and let it cook for a few more minutes. I used more enchilada sauce because 1 can did not seem like enough. These were Delish !!! My husband thought they were a little spicy so I put some sour cream on his and he said they were perfect. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
     
  2. These are incredibly delicious and easy to make. I used 1 1/2 lbs., 85% lean Ground Pork and refried Black Beans. It was taking too long to cook down the liquid, so I sprinkled 2 tablespoons of flour over the mixture and it thickened much quicker. I was told by friends and family, they were the best enchiladas they ever ate.
     
  3. These were good, but very basic. Thanks.
     
  4. Excellent! Will be making it again! The only things I changed was to add some garlic and to use a larger can of enchilada sauce.
     
  5. Looking through my cupboard, I found there were multiple cans of enchilada sauce and also of refried beans. This was the perfect recipe to help use them up! I used 1-1/2 pounds of beef and did not add the chilis. Instead, when serving, I added chopped green onions, lettuce and fresh tomatoes on the side. These were so YUMMY! And the leftovers are something to look forward to, as well.
